Gutfield rules. I love the young conservative media....Gutfield, and Andrew Wilkow are our future....and it excites me.

Elected officials in CO are not finished looking stupid. This from Democrat Congressman Paul Rosenthal: Mace, taser, the buddy system, judo. So I ask Mr. Rosenthal, how close does my wife have to be to a potential rapist to use mace, taser and judo? And if her buddy is female, what double team the guy? What he believes in the buddy system and has brought along a friend or 10? My wife can drop the guy at 25 yards with a firearm and that's close enough for me.

It's always interesting how the GOP says 'Well, such and such (like Scott Brown) is better than the Dem', but no way will they support a conservative canadite!

After playing the clip thoroughly it is easy to see why I dumped Fox News. Listen to this clip again and hear the moral relativism ooze.

If conservatives dump social issues because they got too hard then not only are they really stupid and don't know why they are conservative...they also will deserve the wilderness that they get.

My dear people you have an overwhelming burden of fiscal issues directly due to social issues rooted in immorality. All the bleating and denying in the world will not change that reality. so you go gay...and you go drug addled...and give in on abortion as well but don't be surprised in the slightest when you yourself are in need of an entitlement program that is paid for off of the backs of your neighbors and future generations.

Really they should add S.E. Cupp to the Five. She would fit right in.

My how quickly we forget. Why did Bush win in 04? It was the values voter that came to the polls to vote on traditional marriage. Guess who orchestrated this strategy? No other person than Karl Rove.

Laurel

No Bush won because Democrats put up one of the worst possible candidates they could have. If Dean hadn't imploded Bush would of lost. Who in this country could identify with John Kerry? Less than 1%.

He did and he didn't. You forget that Bush is an expert campaigner. Making it a base election is not enough since no base is a majority.

NO! Libertarianism!

NO! Karl Rove!

And O'Donnell was a better candidate than most of the idiots in Washington. And she wasn't a friggin witch; she's a born again Christian. AND THAT'S why she didn't win. Everything else was just pure nonsense.

Pure, unvarnished, un-apologetic, conservatism. THAT is what is needed today. People like Allen West and Ted Cruz should be leading the way. But since you still have so many RINO Republicans like Carl Rove out there determined to make Republicans just a slower-spending version of liberal Democrats, a true conservative candidate will actually have three things to fight: The Democrats, the mainstream media, AND the RINOs in the Republican party. You really will need somebody with the character and the backbone of an Allen West to take all of that on, and win.

We need a new 3rd party. One that goes back to conservative roots. Not a re-branded Republican party. Not the Libertarian party.

aposematic
aposematic

Agree. But the only chance a third Party would have would be Libertarians, true Conservatives, and TP'ers to join forces. The Libertarians have the National Election system already in place, local systems not so much, though and that would be a big hurdle for any new Party. Just saying.

So why did you cast aspersions on Christine O'Donnel using that pathetic "witch" smear there Greg. Didn't you just kinda, sorta undermine your own premise with your clip of Carson.

O'Donnel was hated because she blew the establishment pick, Mike Castle out of the water something for which Karl Rove still has the knife ready. Admittedly she had other baggage that raised some eyebrows. But the point is that non-conformity to the establishment picks will get you extreme prejudice and nasty smears.

Gutfeld is doing exactly what Democrats never ever do... obsess over whether their candidate has ever done something or said something risible since the day they got out of diapers. Good luck finding the perfect candidate. Unless the candidate is someone like an Alan Grayson, Republicans keep falling yet again for the standards set against them by the Democrats by having to defend every burp and fart that the Democrats deem unacceptable... standards Democrats are NEVER required to live up to. Republicans will never win that game, yet here is Gutfeld playing right into it.

Laurel
Laurel

As far as I'm concerned constantly using Christine O'Donnell as a whipping boy..Sharon Angle too, makes one's morals suspect in view. That is why Rove and others are failing. They act like Democrats in that regard. Demean and spin. Where they don't act like Democrats is defending their own. That is why Dems get away with sheer stupidity, fear mongering, demagoguery.

You have a valid point there Las, HOWEVER, if I saw Greg G. across a crowded room, I'd run straight at him, jump, and let him catch me like a baby. If he missed, or stepped out of the way like a trained matador, well...I'd simply chalk it up as a lesson learned.

Now git! :-)

Oh... and as a P.S.

For fun, go and check out Christine O'Donnel's Wikipedia page. You just know that there is a coordinated activist agenda out to get someone when it takes two days to read the thing.

There is nothing positive there about her... everything is controversial. You can find there the loving hand of the Soros backed CREW (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington) muck raking against her... a group headed by a drone, Melanie Sloan, who worked for Joe Biden acting all "responsible" exposing ethics violations. Hell I wouldn't doubt also if Karl Rove's carpenter ants contributed to the page as well. IMHO, it's brutal what they did to her.

Now I'll go and check out Sarah Palins' Wiki page. Send a search party if I'm not out in a couple of hours.

I'd do the same there... well .... except for the jump and catch bit anyway.

I love Gutfeld, but I can smell the same "gotcha" game, the same liberal smear tactics a mile away. And it's really disheartening when I see a conservative do the same against our own in conformity to what the lying liberals expect from us.

Conservatives bowing to what liberals tell us about ourselves has become downright pathological. And I detected a bit of that in Greg's piece here. That's why I had to speak out against it.

You know how these crazy shooters kill a bunch of innocent folks then kill themselves? All we need to do is get them to reverse that order.

First, get yourself a bullet-deflecting, hypnotist amulet, and wear it around your neck on a chain. Make sure it doesn't get tangled with existing progressive chains.

If a shooter pops up in your school, restaurant, workplace, etc. Take it off and start swinging it like The Amazing Kreskin as you calmly say, "Look into my eyes...kill yourself first, kill yourself first..."

So this is an open thread, huh? Trouble is there is no good news to report. We've gt idiot commie libtards all over the country assaulting the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 10th Amendments and Obama's gonna get some medal in Israel for God only knows what, Moochell is probably planning her next $$$$$$$$$$BILLION dollar vacation, David Axeldouche was hired by MSNBC as a political news analyst, (unbiased I'm sure) and Joey Biden Tells Women To “Buy A Shotgun,” “You Don’t Need An AR-15″ Because It’s “Harder To Aim”, and finally the Congressional Black Caucus is Pressuring Obama To Adopt the Black Agenda…. What's that a big screen TV in every new Cadillac the government is gonna hand out to all the poor black folks, even though they live in a hovel?

Why do I feel the end is near????

Israeli's will do anything to ensure their survival including bribery. They are part of Western Civilization after all and never were above reproach. I support Israel but I also know they do stupid things like the rest of us.

From what I've read Israel is barely conservative. Witness the narrow victory for Netanyahu in the last election. Also note what liberal leadership did in Israel before they turned back to him to correct things. If Israel wasn't under constant threat they'd probably be as liberal as Jewish New Yorkers.

Don't ask me why. I don't even get why we let liberalism get an overwhelming foothold in the U.S.
